Considering the future of the directory

[Trinakarenmille]

Anybody else seeing anything similar? I've been unable to reproduce this, and Trina found it went away then came back without me doing anything!

I clicked on this link on your post.

eBid FAQ and Help Pages including my free Store Directory to start.

Still can't make that go wrong, sorry. I think you have something odd in your browser settings, maybe?

Kimbo.

Then clicked on this bit.

can use my unofficial eBid Store Directory any time you like. You are also welcome to use the banner you will find on the directory page if you wish to link to it - you don't need to ask first, but it would be helpful if you let me know when you'd done it. Thanks

Then clicked on my Vintage shop link.
Which took me to ebid

Then went back to the directory.
Clicked on my Designer link.
Nothing happened.
Nothing happens if I click on anyones link.

So in effect I can go into the directory, click one sellers link only.

I then have to back button back to your first page.
Start all over again by clicking here

Kimbo.

Any ideas what could be affecting it in the browser settings?.
Will take a look later.

As I explained in PM before, the shop links should continue to open in the same window or tab that the first one does. So each new shop overwrites the previous one. This works perfectly for me. If anybody else is having a problem, I'd be grateful if they'd tell me. But sorry, at the moment, I can't see anything at all wrong with it. Are you *sure* the shop tab/window isn't getting the new content. Do you actually look? (Sorry, I've got to ask! ) Or is it just because the shop you choose second has a similar name (being another of your own) that you could be failing to notice that it's been replaced?

I've checked quite a few random stores just now and the all over rode the previous is the same window - so that part of things works fine for me.

I did however come accross a few links - One of Beckys, Huddys and one of the NP Collectables (can't remember which particular sotres) instead of opening the store pages it took me to the eBid home page. Is it where sellers have altered their store details?

I hope that helps

I'm confused...why was your directory pulled?

Thanks Babs, useful on both counts. I must have a cull of dead links, and fix any I've broken!

It wasn't, the promotional thread took a few drive-by hits and ebid pulled the whole thread, rather than try to weed out the unacceptable posts. I then had to decide if I should fire-up a fresh one or not. I have.

You're welcome - you can trust me to create more work for you and find things that don't work
